Allerheiligen

Allerheiligen is a church building in Delmenhorst-Deichhorst with a distinctive diamond-shaped interior space that seats about 450 people and is topped by a curved tent roof. The structure is defined by wide bands of colored windows that bring light and color into the interior.

Construction began in 1963 as part of a nationwide program to build garrison churches for soldiers stationed away from home during the post-war period. The building was positioned strategically near the Caspari Barracks to serve both the civilian and military communities of the region.

The church is named after All Saints and serves today as a branch of St. Marien parish. It functions as a gathering place where the local community comes together for regular worship and religious life.

The church is located at Wildeshauserstraße 23 in Delmenhorst-Deichhorst and is relatively straightforward to find. Visitors should be aware that regular services are held and the community actively uses the building.

The building features a 35-meter concrete tower on its west side that houses three bells cast by a foundry in Bremen-Hemelingen. These bells give the site its own acoustic identity and are a craftsman-made feature of the structure.
